CARDIOMETABOLIC STRESS TEST WITH PULMONARY FUNCTION TESTING

A physician uses advanced testing equipment to determine your aerobic fitness level (VO2 maximum), optimal exercise heart rates, anaerobic threshold and accurate calories burned at any given heart rate. This can also help determine the safety of your participation in exercise: You’ll be screened for arrhythmias, EKG changes, exercise-induced asthma, obstructive lung disorders and blood pressure tolerance during exercise. Whether you’re training for a triathlon or just started to exercise, this service will help you work out safely and efficiently – and get maximum results.

80 minutes.

Part II – In a follow-up session, an exercise physiologist will interpret your test and create an exercise prescription to meet your health and fitness goals.
